Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a wireless communication system and, more specifically, to activation and deactivation of semi-persistent Channel State Information (CSI) reporting by a wireless device.
  • CSI Channel State Information
  • the next generation mobile wireless communication system which is referred to as Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Fifth Generation (5G) or New Radio (NR), will support a diverse set of use cases and a diverse set of deployment scenarios.
  • 3GPP Third Generation Partnership Project
  • 5G Fifth Generation
  • NR New Radio
  • the latter includes deployment at both low frequencies in the range of hundreds of megahertz (MHz), similar to Long Term Evolution (LTE) today, and very high frequencies referred to as millimeter wave (mmW) in the range of tens of gigahertz (GHz).
  • MHz Megahertz
  • LTE Long Term Evolution
  • mmW millimeter wave
  • NR will use Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) in the downlink from a NR base station (gNB) to a User Equipment device (UE).
  • OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
  • gNB NR base station
  • UE User Equipment device
  • DFT Discrete Fourier Transform
  • the basic NR physical resource can thus be seen as a time-frequency grid as illustrated in Figure 1 , where each Resource Element (RE) corresponds to one OFDM subcarrier during one OFDM symbol interval.
  • Resource allocation in a slot is described in terms of Resource Blocks (RBs) in the frequency domain and number of OFDM symbols in the time domain.
  • RBs Resource Blocks
  • a RB corresponds to 12 contiguous subcarriers and a slot consists of 14 OFDM symbols.
  • NR Different subcarrier spacing values are supported in NR.
  • downlink and uplink transmissions in NR are organized into equally-sized subframes similar to LTE as shown in Figure 2 .
  • a subframe is further divided into slots and the number of slots per subframe is 2 ⁇ +1 for a numerology of (15 ⁇ 2 ⁇ ) kHz.
  • the NR supports "slot based" transmission.
  • the gNB transmits Downlink Control Information (DCI) about which UE data is to be transmitted to and what resources in the current downlink subframe the data is transmitted on.
  • the DCI is carried on the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and data is carried on the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH).
  • PDCH Physical Downlink Control Channel
  • PDSCH Physical Downlink Shared Channel
  • This PDCCH is typically transmitted in Control Resource Sets (CORSETs) in the first few OFDM symbols in each slot.
  • CORSETs Control Resource Sets
  • a UE first decodes PDCCH and if a PDCCH is decoded successfully, it then decodes the corresponding PDSCH based on the decoded DCI in the PDCCH.
  • Uplink data transmissions are also dynamically scheduled using PDCCH. Similar to downlink, a UE first decodes an uplink grant in a DCI carried by PDCCH and then transmits data over the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) based on the decoded control information in the uplink grant such as modulation order, coding rate, uplink resource allocation, etc. Each UE is assigned a unique Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI) during network connection.
  • C-RNTI Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier
  • the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits attached to a DCI for a UE are scrambled by the UE's C-RNTI, so a UE recognizes its own DCI by checking the CRC bits of the DCI against the assigned C-RNTI.
  • uplink DCI For uplink scheduling over PUSCH, at least the following bit fields are included in an uplink DCI:
  • CSI feedback is used by the gNB to obtain downlink CSI from a UE in order to determine how to transmit downlink data to a UE over a plurality of antenna ports.
  • CSI typically includes a channel Rank Indicator (RI), a Precoding Matrix Indicator (PMI), and a Channel Quality Indicator (CQI).
  • RI is used to indicate the number of data layers that can be transmitted simultaneously to a UE
  • PMI is used to indicate the precoding matrix for the indicated data layers
  • CQI is used to indicate the modulation and coding rate that can be achieved with the indicated rank and the precoding matrix.
  • NR in addition to periodic and aperiodic CSI reporting as in LTE, semi-persistent CSI reporting is also supported.
  • three types of CSI reporting will be supported in NR as follows:
  • CSI-RS CSI Reference Signal
  • CSI-RS is used for measuring downlink CSI by a UE.
  • CSI-RS is transmitted over each transmit (Tx) antenna port at the gNB and for different antenna ports and the CSI-RSs are multiplexed in time, frequency, and code domain such that the channel between each Tx antenna port at the gNB and each receive antenna port at a UE can be measured by the UE.
  • a time frequency resource used for transmitting CSI-RS is referred to as a CSI-RS resource.
  • a UE can be configured with N ⁇ 1 CSI reporting settings (i.e., ReportConfigs), M ⁇ 1 resource settings (i.e., ResourceConfigs), and one CSI measurement setting, where the CSI measurement setting includes L ⁇ 1 measurement links (i.e., MeasLinkConfigs). At least the following configuration parameters are signaled via RRC for CSI acquisition.
  • A-CSI reporting over PUSCH is triggered by a DCI for scheduling PUSCH or uplink DCI.
  • a special CSI request bit field in the DCI is defined for the purpose.
  • Each value of the CSI request bit field defines a codepoint and each codepoint can be associated with a higher layer configured CSI report trigger state.
  • the CSI report trigger states contains a list of S c measurement links associated with A-CSI reporting.
  • Each CSI report trigger state defines at least the following information:
  • the bit width, L c , of the CSI request field is configurable from 0 to 6 bits.
  • S c When the number of CSI triggering states, S c , is larger than the number of codepoints, i.e. S c > 2 L c - 1, a Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) is used to select a subset of 2 L c - 1 triggering states from the S c triggering states so that there is a one-to-one mapping between each codepoint and a CSI triggering state.
  • the 2 L c - 1 is due to the fact that one codepoint with setting the CSI request field to all zeroes is used to indicate no triggered report.
  • Figure 3 provides an illustration of A-CSI reporting.
  • Figure 4 illustrates SP-CSI reporting over PUSCH. It has been agreed that SP-CSI reporting over PUSCH is activated using DCI, and the CSI is reported on PUSCH periodically until the SP-CSI reporting is deactivated, also by DCI, as shown in Figure 4 .
  • a set of SP-CSI report settings, or SP-CSI report trigger states are higher layer configured by Semi-persistent-on-PUSCHReportTrigger and the CSI request field in DCI scrambled with SP-CSI C-RNTI activates one of the SP-CSI reports or trigger states.
  • a SP-CSI report trigger state may comprise one or more of a SP-CSI report setting configuration, a SP-CSI resource setting configuration for channel measurement, and a SP-CSI resource setting configuration for interference measurement. When only a single SP-CSI resource is allowed, then a SP-CSI report trigger state is equivalent to one or more SP-CSI report settings.
  • a UE performs SP-CSI reporting on the PUSCH upon successful decoding an uplink DCI format.
  • the uplink DCI format will contain one or more CSI Reporting Setting Indications where the associated CSI Measurement Links and CSI Resource Settings are higher layer configured.
  • SP-CSI reporting on the PUSCH supports Type I and Type II CSI with wideband, partial band, and sub-band frequency granularities.
  • the PUSCH resources and MCS are allocated semi-persistently by an uplink DCI.
  • the gNB or UE consists of a number protocol layers, including Physical (PHY) layer, MAC layer, and RRC layer.
  • the PHY layer is also referred to as Layer 1 (L1).
  • the MAC layer is part of Layer 2 (L2), which also includes Radio Link Control (RLC), Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP), and Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) layers.
  • Layers above PHY are also referred to as higher layers, such as MAC and RRC. Part of the MAC function is to perform data scheduling while part of the RRC function is to establish, maintain, and release radio link connection between a gNB and a UE.
  • the gNB can also semi-statically allocate resources for Configured Scheduling (CS) or Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS):
  • CS Configured Scheduling
  • SPS Semi-Persistent Scheduling
  • RRC configures at least the following parameters when the configured grant Type 1 is configured:
  • RRC configures at least the following parameters when the configured grant Type 2 is configured:
  • the UE does not transmit anything on the resources configured by the RRC if the higher layers did not deliver a Transport Block (TB) to transmit on the resources allocated for SPS transmission.
  • TB Transport Block
  • a set of allowed periodicities P are defined in table 6.1.2.3-1 of 38.214, which is copied below, where CP is for Cyclic Prefix type.
  • Table 6.1.2.3-1: Allowed periodicities P for uplink transmission without grant ⁇ CP Possible values of periodicities P [symbols] 0 Normal 2, 7, n*14, where n ⁇ 1, 2, 5, 10.
  • Proposal 2 The same confirmation mechanism in LTE Rel-8 for UL SPS activation/deactivation can be used for SP-CSI.
  • Proposal 3 SP-CSI specific C-RNTI is supported for SP-CSI.
  • Proposal 4 SP-CSI re-activation that updates the resource assignment or other parameters is supported.
  • Proposal 5 Retransmissions are not supported for SP-CSI on PUSCH.
  • Proposal 6 Uplink MIMO is supported for SP-CSI on PUSCH.
  • Proposal 7 The same UCI encoding for A-CSI on PUSCH is used for SP-CSI UCI encoding on PUSCH.
  • Proposal 3 Support BWP-specific CSI configurations where separate independent instances of CSI report settings are configured for each candidate BWP, each mapping to independent Resource Settings.
  • Proposal 4 Do not reporting CSI corresponding to a non-active BWP if the active and non-active BWPs span different PRBs.
  • Proposal 5 A BWP spanning a subset of PRBs of another BWP can reuse the same CSI configuration as that BWP.
  • Proposal 6 Adopt the additional CSI periodicities in Table 1 to ensure alignment between P-CSI reporting and DRX cycles for all supported subcarrier spacings.
  • Proposal 7 For priority rules for CSI collision, the following definition is used: "Two CSI reports are said to collide if the time occupancy of the physical channels scheduled to carry the CSI reports overlap in at least one OFDM symbol and are transmitted on the same carrier".
  • Proposal 8 For P/SP CSI collisions where all colliding CSIs are transmitted on PUCCH, the CSI with the longest periodicity has priority while the other CSIs are dropped.
  • Proposal 9 Extend the agreed priority rules for CSI collision in RAN1#90b also to when Type I and Type II CSI collides.
  • Proposal 10 Adopt the refined subband sizes and ranges in Table 2.
  • Proposal 11 If configured to be present for a CSI report setting, the indicator of strongest DL layer within the CW with highest CQI for DL PTRS port mapping purpose, the so called CPI, is jointly encoded with RI into a single field using at most one additional bit compared to standalone RI field.
  • Proposal 12 The same set of RRC configured PUSCH timing offsets Y is used for PUSCH with and without piggybacked CSI.
  • Proposal 13 SP-CSI reporting on PUCCH is activated with DCI.
  • Proposal 14 SP-CSI reporting on PUCCH uses semi-statically configured PUCCH resources.
  • Proposal 15 Confirm the working assumption to support A-CSI on short PUCCH for Y>0.

  • Example 1 - Reuse Some Bit Field in UL DCI for Activation and Deactivation Indication For uplink data transmission on PUSCH, when a decoding error occurs at the gNB, the gNB may request a retransmission of the data by a UE. For this purpose, the UE keeps a copy of the original data in its transmission buffer until a DCI with a New Data Indication (NDI) is received from the gNB for the same Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) process. When a retransmission is needed, the gNB typically sends another uplink grant in DCI with the "New Data Indication" bit set to "0" and the "Redundancy Version” bit field set to a desired value.
  • NDI New Data Indication
  • HARQ Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request
  • the "New Data Indication” bit may be used for SP-CSI activation and deactivation indication. After a UE detects an UL DCI scrambled by its SP-CSI C-RNTI, the UE can further check the "New Data Indication” bit to determine whether it is for SP-CSI activation or deactivation. For example, the bit is set to "0" for activation and to "1" for deactivation. This allows for reconfiguration of an ongoing SP-CSI by sending a new activation DCI with new parameters such as a new resource allocation or a new modulation order. An example is shown in Figure 9 .
  • the 2 bit "Redundancy Version” field in the UL DCI can be used for the purpose.
  • the bits are set to "00" for activation and to "11" for deactivation.
  • Embodiment - Reuse More Than One Bit Field in UL DCI for Activation and Deactivation Indication To further enhance the validation reliability for SP-CSI activation or deactivation, more than one bit field in UL DCI may be used.
  • a UE For SP-CSI activation validation, a UE first validates a SP-CSI DCI in a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) by verifying that the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits of the DCI are scrambled by SP-CSI C-RNTI. As an example, the UE further verifies that at least one or all of the following conditions are met:
  • PDCCH Physical Downlink Control Channel
  • CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check
  • a UE For SP-CSI deactivation or release validation, a UE first validates a SP-CSI DCI in a PDCCH by verifying that the CRC bits of the DCI are scrambled by SP-CSI C-RNTI. As an example, the UE further verifies that at least one or all of the following conditions are met:
  • Unclaimed example 2 - Use One Bit in the CSI Request Field in UL DCI for Activation and Deactivation Indication Another option is to use one bit in the CSI request bit field for activation and deactivation indication and the rest of the bits in the CSI request field for selecting a SP-CSI trigger state. However, when the configured number of bits in the CSI request field is small, this would reduce the number of SP-CSI trigger states that can be supported. Furthermore, if only one bit for the CSI request field is configured, then this option would not allow more than one SP-CSI trigger state, which is a limitation. This option doesn't work when the zero bit is configured for the CSI request field.
  • SP-CSI activation and deactivation are defined as part of the SP-CSI trigger states, in which case for each SP-CSI reporting configuration and resource configuration, two states are configured - one for activation and the other for deactivation, as shown in Figure 10 .

  • UCI Uplink Control Information
  • SPS and SP-CSI reporting are activated with the same UL DCI message.
